Aims of "The Investigation Committee on Pulsed Power Generation and Application" are to investigate recent developments on generation and control of pulsed power, to clarify the technological issues, and to provide the future prospects of such research area. This paper is written as the "section 3.3 Optical Diagnostics" in the technical report of the committee. Here, "diagnostics of relativistic electron beam in a torus plasma by laser inverse Compton scattering" is reported. This method has been newly proposed by JAERI for active measurement of the energy distribution of runaway electrons in a tokamak plasma. The paper presents the basic properties of scattered photons estimated in the case of runaway electron beam observed in JT-60U (number of beam electrons=2e17 electrons, beam electron energy = 30 MeV). For instance, when we use the fundamental YAG laser with the energy of 10 J/pulse and pulse widths of 1 ns, maximum energy of scattered photons would be in the X-ray region, and the signal to noise ratio can be estimated as 3. It is also mentioned that the development of the pulse X-ray imaging spectroscopy is required for this diagnostics method.

In order to mitigate the post-disruption runaway electrons, experiments has been carried out with impurity pellet injection. As a result, we have observed the prompt exhaust of the runaway electrons and the reduction of runaway plasma. We have presented one possible explanation for basic behavior of the runaway plasma current that it follows the balance of the avalanche generation of runaway electrons and their slowing down predicted by the model, including effects by synchrotron radiation. On the other hand, standing on the fact that the current quench time is extended by runaway electrons, the experiment for avoiding the current quench by runaway electrons has been carried out. The runaway electrons reinforced the discharge to survive against the low Te of less than several tens eV and an additional impurity pellet injection, and thus the plasma current was maintained and terminated as programmed. To study the dynamics of runaway electrons precisely, a new active and direct diagnostic concept using the laser inverse Compton scattering has been proposed.
